About This Home

550 S Green Bay Road

Architecturally significant and beautifully preserved, this exceptional Roy Binkley-designed Mid-Century Modern residence is set on 1.3 private, wooded acres, offering a rare blend of design pedigree, modern updates, and flexible living spaces. Defined by soaring ceilings, dramatic walls of glass, and Binkley's signature integration of architecture and nature, the home is rich in texture, form, and function. Thoughtfully designed for primarily one-level living, the residence includes a fully integrated private suite with its own entrance, kitchenette, office, and sitting room-ideal for guests, multigenerational living, an au pair, or a private work-from-home retreat. Expansive windows frame breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape from nearly every room, creating the sensation of living among the treetops. The walk-out lower level offers additional living and recreation space, perfect for a fitness studio, media room, or teen retreat, all with serene views of the property. Significant improvements include a new roof and skylights (2025), along with beautifully expanded primary and second-floor baths. Freshly painted inside and out, this meticulously maintained home is truly move-in ready. A rare opportunity to own a timeless architectural gem where every angle reveals a new perspective and every room celebrates the beauty of its natural surroundings. Adjacent to Waveland Park.
